Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. They play important roles in many biological processes and have therapeutic uses when administered exogenously. Peptides used therapeutically are synthetically made and given via subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.
Popular types of peptide injections used in hormone therapy and aging include:
Administering peptides can provide a variety of benefits:
- Build lean muscle - Lose stubborn fat - Speed injury recovery - Strengthen bones - Improve sleep quality
- Boost energy and endurance - Enhance mood and mental clarity - Strengthen immune system - Increase libido and sexual performance
- Tighten, tone, and rejuvenate skin - Regrow hair - Restore youthful hormone levels - Revitalize organ function
The following groups make strong candidates for peptide therapy:
Low growth hormone (GH) levels can occur at any age and result in:
Injecting GH-promoting peptides can help restore optimal levels.
Peptides aid performance enhancement by:
This makes them useful supplements for both professional athletes and weekend warriors.
Aging adults can benefit from improved:
Peptides help restore a more youthful physiology.
Peptides accelerate injury healing by:
This makes them helpful for recovery from surgery, wounds or sports injury.
Gastrointestinal peptides like BPC-157 promote healing of:
Making them useful for those suffering from common digestive ailments.
The first step is to schedule a consultation with a peptide doctor. They will:
Key lab tests checked:
Most protocols involve injecting peptides 1-2 times per day. Our clinic teaches safe injection techniques for:
We provide all needed supplies:
Follow-up visits are scheduled every 2-4 weeks to:
Duration of treatment varies from 3-9 months depending on the protocol.
Certain peptides like BPC-157 have been shown in studies to rapidly heal damaged tendons, ligaments, and bone in animals. Though not proven in humans yet, these findings suggest peptide injections may one day revolutionize how we treat sports injuries and accelerate healing after surgery.
Growth hormone releasing peptides (GHRPs) stimulate the pituitary gland to secrete natural growth hormone. This helps restore youthful levels that decline with age.
Popular GHRP choices include:
These peptides are taken via subQ or IM injection at night before bed to align with the body's natural GH release rhythms.
Growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) act directly on GH receptors in the body to amplify their effects. This makes them effective muscle builders.
Well-known GHS options are:
GHS peptides are usually injected under the skin 1-2 times per day.
These specialized peptides target the regeneration of cells, tissues and organs to combat aging and speed injury healing:
They are injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously once or twice per week typically.
It's important to promptly treat hormone deficiencies because they can worsen over time leading to heightened risk for:
The wide variety of peptide protocols we offer can get deficient hormone levels back into optimal ranges quickly and safely to halt and prevent worsening illness.
